On Sunday we began Binge the Bible: Season 2 with this truth:

If we don’t retell God’s story, we’ll forget the Savior at the center of it.

Now, let’s think about that. Every one of us is living inside some kind of story. Modern secular culture says the story is: you’re an accident of atoms, so write your own meaning. The problem? If you’re just an accident, meaning is something you invent, not something you can trust. That’s shaky ground to build a life on.

Psalm 78 reminds us that God’s story is different. It’s not myth, it’s memory. It’s anchored in events, an exodus, a covenant, a Messiah who stepped into history. Forgetting that story isn’t like forgetting where you parked your car; it’s like forgetting who you are. And when you forget who you are, you’ll let someone else define you.

That’s why retelling matters. We’re all curators of memory. If we don’t hand our kids God’s story, the culture will gladly hand them another—one that says they’re accidents of biology, or that happiness is found in consuming more. But those scripts leave people restless. Only the gospel gives a story that is both true enough to satisfy the mind and strong enough to heal the heart.

That’s how remembering works. It’s how faith gets transferred, not just taught.
